ME0462 : ASME Section 8 Division 3

This course is designed to provide the participants with a detailed and up-to-date overview of ASME section 8 division 3. It covers the general requirements comprising of scope, jurisdiction, organization of the division, responsibilities and duties; the general rules for inspection and additional general requirements for composite reinforced pressure vessels (CRPV); the material requirements, mechanical property test for metals, supplementary requirements for bolting, material design data and requirements for laminate materials; and the requirements of design covering fatigue evaluation, fracture mechanics evaluation and design using autofrettage.
Further, this course will also discuss the design requirements for closures, integral heads, threaded fasteners, seals, attachments, supports, external heating and cooling jackets; the special design requirements for layered vessels, wire-wound vessels and frames; the vessels in hydrogen service, welded vessels, experimental design verification and composite reinforced pressure vessels (CRPV); and the general fabrication requirements, supplemental welding fabrication requirements, fabrication requirements for matesrials with protective linings, heat treatment of weldments, fabrication requirements for autofrettaged vessels, quenched and tempered steels.
